Do I need to tip when staying in a hotel in Saipan?

Paradise-like Saipan provides a comfortable, quiet and romantic place. Avoiding the peak tourist season, you can come here to experience the magic and magnificence of nature, as well as the gentleness of the sunset. When traveling to such a peaceful and romantic place, you can prepare some small tickets of US$1 in advance. The waiters in Saipan use tips as their main source of income.

1. After checking in on the island, luggage handling.

This is a must. When you check in, the hotel will arrange a bellman to carry you to your room. You will be given a room key at this time. The room door is always open at this time. If you meet the waiter when you arrive in the room, please tip them 1-2 US dollars. But in many cases, when you arrive, the waiter has disappeared and your luggage has been safely placed in the room for you. Why give it? These waiters are the lowest-level waiters in the resort. They are basically locals. Their work is very tedious. They are not only the luggage porters when you first go to the island, but also most of them have to participate in restaurant services, as well as problem handlers in their free time, and even Guest performer at the party. They are closely related to the guests' holidays. Since they have the most contact with guests, their basic salary is also the lowest. Tips are an important source of income.

2. Do not disturb & organize the room tip situation.

If you put up a "Do Not Disturb" sign, housekeeping staff will take a detour. If there is a "tidy room" sign or there is no sign, the housekeeping staff will come to clean it. If you have this need, you can place 1-2 US dollars neatly on your pillow or bedside table as a tip. The room attendant will also be happy to refill you with fresh water, drinks, etc. in a timely manner. Generally speaking, the accommodation requirements of Chinese people are 2 sand and 2 water. I personally feel that there is really no need to tidy up the room. Of course, it depends on the situation.
